Description

One of the dependencies of 1.6.* has a security vulnerability that GitHub constantly warns about. It's not in 2.* - it's disparity.

Unfortunately, the fix to diff was incorrectly applied to disparity as a new major, instead of as a minor, meaning its downstreams aren't updating, so the "fix" isn't in place.

Can a user of 1.6.* use 2.*?

Could ... could I talk you into patching and publishing a new 1.6? It's just a version bump, and nyc / ava are throwing security faults on this.
